- Thanks to Chris Bailey for pointing out I stuffed up the wheel arrangement. Obviously not thinking it through. FSCT is a 4-6-2 not a 2-6-1 as I said in the video.
This video will show you how to drive The Flying Scotsman with Safety Systems on.

One of the best TSW tutorials I've ever seen. Clear concise and informative. Thanks mate!
Glad you like it. I try to keep them short. Nobody has time for rambling 😁
What map are you playing on? Is it in free roam?
Looks like East Coast Main Line
Excellent video! I’m finally getting the hang of Scotsman but I note you say both ejectors should be closed when running? I was of the understanding that the small one had to be open? If I close the small one when running the train starts to slow. Thanks
@@ktfcmatt it depends what Rolling stock you're pulling. If you are pulling air brake stock, you need to keep both ejectors closed the entire time. If you are pulling vacuum stock, you need to keep one of the ejectors open to keep the brakes off. What can happen with air brake stock is you might have some vacuum in the system and it confuses the game. There are two release valves on the locomotive. One of them below the reverser and the other one is on the right hand side of the tender behind the driver. Those will destroy the vacuum. If you're showing any vacuum on the vacuum gauge and you're running air brake stock, use both of those levers to get the vacuum back to zero
Thank you for posting these guide videos, they’re very helpful !
You mention the wheel arrangement for Flying Scotsman as 2-6-1; your description of the number of wheels is right but, as she is a British locomotive the correct designation is 4-6-2 , hope this is useful for you. 👍🏻😊🚂
Hope your cold disappears quickly!
Oh lol I got that wrong how embarrassing, thanks for pointing it out. This deserves a pin 📌.
Also FYI, these 4-6-2 locomotives were given the class type name of Pacifics in England. The same as 2-6-2T locomotives were referred to as Prairies!
Thanks yes and you'd think I'd know the wheel arrangement given I regularly fire a Prairie in real life :). I don't know why but your comment was held for review by YT so excuse the tardy reply please.
Then again I am an America maybe European stuff is different😅
Well Americans use the Whyte notation which was adopted by the UK. These days nearly the entire world uses UIC although America that loves to be different adopted a simpler version called AAR.
Flying scotsman is now an A3
It is now yes, but it was an A1
Hello. I can do only training with this train but how I can drive full missions? Do I have to buy this train?
My guess is you are playing on console? You need to download the routes from the base game package separately. You will already own whatever came in your bundle. Take a look in downloads under manage game and download them then you can use whatever is in your collection.
@@trainsimulatordriver Yes I have 6 trains and 4 routes only.
@@D.W91 sounds like TSW4 Standard Edition? Scotty should turn up as a railtour on some of them. If not, you can spawn it onto any route using Free Roam - not a tutorial, but this video shows how to free roam with another train th-cam.com/video/ZMWw__58f7I/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OHCopWT_nO3lb3v_
@@trainsimulatordriver Yes..Okay. Rotem B is nice train. I like it. And hey! Last time I told you I don't understand safety systems. Now I can drive full missions all systems ON! It's really fun.
@@D.W91 excellent, well done
Hmmmmm trees still piecing in like a puzzle. Still pausing. But I know you're gonna ignore that. Ha haaaaaaa From Your Boy Poorhouzzzzzzz
You know none of those things have been advertised as changing mate. Stop flogging the dead horse, she's not going to get up and pull your wagon.
I think the AWS still doesn't work properly. Same as the fireman.
@@herecomethelizards2 the fireman isn't actually implemented, the engines have magic steam. It isn't likely to progress beyond that point. What makes you think AWS doesn't work? It's been ok on every British route I've tried it on that supports AWS.
Can someone please tell me how come it's easier start a 100 year old steam train that a 20 year old freight train?
@@B-A-L in reality it's not. I'm a real life fireman and to be ready for our 10am departure I start at 6am. It takes about 3 hours to be ready to move and another hour to be ready to depart. It can be done a bit quicker if you need to do shunting but forcing a boiler is a bad idea.
Does anyone know why my brakes keep applying when reaching around 50kmph I haven’t had train sim long
On which train? And what are you doing right before it? And do you have any safety systems turned on? So many possibilities, if you're able to upload a video of your run from the start up to and including when the brakes come on that would be handy.
@@trainsimulatordriver I think I’ve sorted it I had the ejectors open and when I closed them the brakes never came on after a few laps around the test centre (flying Scotsman)
@@Rc.guy2010ah its Scotty! Scotsman has a difficult set up because it has both vacuum and air brakes. The locomotive always runs on air brakes but the train can be vacuum or air. Train formations that come with Scotty are all air braked. By default both Ejectors (creators of vacuum) should be off but if you put them on or they're on in the game for some reason - I had it happen today on stream and don't know if I put them on or if they were already on) then you need to close them and bleed the vacuum both from the engine (black lever behind reverser) and the reservoir on the tender (silver lever on drivers side at the back). Once the vacuum is bled off you should be ok. It is worth noting that the air brakes take a minute or so to pump up the entire train from zero or after a heavy application so you'll find your brakes are on for a while.
@@trainsimulatordriver thanks for helping
@@Rc.guy2010 😁
how to you get that hud. is till have the tsw3 hud . only new thing is the bar at top right i have
Go into settings, under accessibility there's a HUD type set it to minimal. I'll make a video for it next day or so.
Flying Scotsman is a 4-6-2 Pacific type steam locomotive an in America we have wheel Arrangements such as the 2-8-2 which is called the Mikado a 2-8-4 which is called a Berkshire a 4-6-4 which is called a Baltic / Hudson for the 482 which is called a mountain/mohawk if you know the New York Central Railroad the 4-8-4 Northern type the 2-10-0 decapod the 2-10-4 Texas type the 2-10-2 Santa Fe type and the 4-10-2 Overland type and I haven't even gotten to the articulated steam locomotives yet such as the 4-8-8-4 big boy/wasatch type or the 4-6-6-4 Challenger type for the 2-8-8-4 Yellowstone type 2-6-6-2 / 2-8-8-2 mallets
yes it is - it was originally an A1 Pacific and over the years was upgraded to A3 Pacific in its current form. It will go in for a new overhaul this year. I doubt it will move on from A3 as it would then become Mallard like which is the only remaining A4.
There are six A4 locos around today, out of a total of 35 built.
I know how to do everything but the game gives me this big red square like i’m doing everything wrong, i’m so confused
Red square on the HUD? That means the train is interlocked. A condition is stopping it from driving. Either brakes are on, doors open, safety systems have triggered and not been acknowledged. What loco and route are you trying?
@@trainsimulatordriver the flying scotsman, but none of that has happened
@@fphtrains have you loaded from a saved game or checkpoint?
@@trainsimulatordriver ?
@@fphtrains ok since you don't know what they are I'll take that as a "no". The other possibility is brakes. Flying Scotsman has both vacuum and air brakes. What coaches do you have on the back?
Yooo great video bro however I do have one question: What even is AWS
Hi AWS is an audible and visual warning system to make the driver aware of adverse signals. If the driver approaches a yellow or red they must acknowledge within a few seconds or the train will stop itself for safety
@@trainsimulatordriver oh! Makes sense, however now I have to ask what the difference between isolated and unisolated is
@@LoonasHusband isolated turns it off, unisolated turns it on.
How do u unlock the passenger doors ? Is there a button to press ? I’m a trainsim novice & had great difficulty finding this , wouldn’t let me move out without unlocking doors 🤦♂️
On PC use the Y to open left side doors and U to open right. On console is the left and right buttons on the dpad. You can look in settings to see all the controls
@@trainsimulatordriver that’s great il give that a try next time ! Thanks 😉
@@strains3551 you're welcome
I have to say the sounds in those still sound like the library sounds for Train Simulator Classic, an not a patch on those by Steam sounds supreme, be interesting to see what the sounds are like in the fourth coming Caledonia Works addon for train Simulator Classic
They're recorded on the locomotive. They're the real sounds properly timed to the chuffs. I've heard the raw recordings before the mixing. I reckon they're spot on. I'm surprised you like the SSS sounds the way they transition from loop to loop as you accelerate is pretty rough.
I understand that new one are , or have been recorded for the new pack being published by Caledonia works. And you heard the raw recordings before they were being used in TSW 4 ? , hmmm you must have special access to material us mere mortals don't then @@trainsimulatordriver
@@heydon2012 yep. These are all new recordings made specifically by DTG on trips with NRM to get the best most realistic sounds possible. It's cool to bring in external sound mods if that makes you happy and suits your expectation of what it should sound like but they aren't necessarily more realistic. I'm a steam engineman IRL and I'm pretty happy with the sounds. I think the only thing I'm used to that's missing is the deep long waveform vibrations but I also suspect that you'd need awesome headphones or a subwoofer to even reproduce them.
@@trainsimulatordriver well you referred to the steam sounds supreme sounds being on a loop , I don’t know which ones you heard because I believe they did update them to be compatible with the flying Scotsman’s 100 pack by DTG. Either way the TSW4 looks less ugly than the first 2 iterations of the sim , as I had like some distortion around the wheels of trains with the first 2 tSW , whether that was the sim or my RX5700XT Nitro+ graphics card who knows .
@@heydon2012 they did used to have wheel blur issues and that is resolved these days which is good. I have the SSS sounds for Scotsman on the 100 pack. There's three or maybe four loops it uses as the train increases speed.
What about dampers?
Nah don't bother with them. The firing simulation in anything other than automatic might as well be random. Improving it has sadly been shelved.
What about dampers
There are no functional firing controls that do anything more than move when you touch them. Imaginary Coal and always full water combine to make magic steam.
@@trainsimulatordriverjust tell me buttons
@@trainsimulatordriver I want to make steam come out of the tender
@@ollielovestrains223 lol
Maybe I'm just an idiot but I seem to be running the Scotsman out of steam before I can get it up to 60mph
There is a difference between idiot and not knowing something :). Where is your reverser set? Once you get moving you should be able to have it around the 30% mark. The percentage is the amount of time that the steam inlet valve is open to the cylinder at each end of the stroke. When its wide open at 70% that is using a huge amount of steam using the raw boiler pressure to move the piston. Bringing it back to 30% means the inlet is open for less time and uses less steam relying on the steam expanding to provide the needed power. Up hills or for more acceleration stay in the higher 30's or even into the low 40's.
@trainsimulatordriver Thanks a bunch, I'll try to be more conservative with it in the future.
@@BuckarooBoya it should help - let me know if something else is going on
Does manual firing work on the scotsman
No manual firing is not supported at all. The option is there as a future placeholder only.
@@trainsimulatordriver A huge negative for me. Managing the fire is a big part of the experience. This is like driving a sports car with an automatic transmission. Eew.
@@kleinbottled79 then you should look at Century of Steam it's going to have the nearest to realistic firing simulation as possible, what we've had in every simulator until this one is complete rubbish and unlike real firing (I'm a real life fireman). www.studio346.net/centuryofsteam.html
